To insert multiple columns: Select the same number of columns to the right of where you want to add new ones. Right-click the selection, and then select Insert Columns.

If you don’t need any of the existing cells, rows, or columns, here’s how to delete them: Select the cells, rows, or columns that you want to delete.
